Tag / Sid’s

The very first Oktoberfest is said to be taken place in Munich on October 12, 1810 to commemorate the marriage of Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen. They decided to do it again the very next year since it was a lot more successful than everyone anticipated.

However, it is pretty safe to say that even the original couple couldn’t have envisioned the appeal of Oktoberfest to be this huge. It took 200 years, but Oktoberfest is now a in full swing right here in KL! (someone should edit the Oktoberfest Celebrations article in Wikipedia if it’s not done already).

In conjunction with Oktoberfest, Tiger Beer has some pretty awesome promotions too:

RM50 mug of 1 litre Tiger beer (you can keep the Oktoberfest mug)

A bucket of 5 Tiger Beer pints Free when you spend more than RM200 on your food bill

Free Oktoberfest Hat when you grab the 12-beer cans pack at participating hypermarket

I went to Sid’s to break my Oktoberfest virginity.

To be honest, the celebration turned out to be quite a lot bigger than I had anticipated. There was a big tent set up outside Sid’s, with hundreds of people partying right on the streets (this despite the fact that it was a weekday too), check out the video above.
